The location is very good- 10 min.walk from the center with stunning views over Machico. I had a private room with a bathroom in a private property - with shared common living area and a kitchen. Nonetheless, It felt like i had it all to myself - I barely felt any presence of the owners. They are very nice and welcoming ☺️ I enjoyed my stay:)

The location was really nice, up a hill with a view of the valley below. The host was extremely nice and helpful, the house was equipped with everything we needed and more, bathroom was clean and kitchen well equipped. And all that for a very reasonable price.

The location was excellent. It’s walking distance to the beach and all the little restaurants and businesses in town. There is a grocery store a two minute walk away down the hill. The condominium as well outfitted, it has good airflow, it is well outfitted, it is not fancy, but it is serviceable. There is a nice little outdoor patio. there is no air conditioning and I could find no heater control, not that we needed it. It’s a flat, so there’s always a learning curve and figuring out how everything works. Love the washer and dryer.

The host was extremely communicative and clear about everything. He even sent pictures to go with each step of instructions. The indoor reserved parking spot was a life saver. We also had to ask to stay an extra night due to a medical issue and he was kind and accommodating.
Machico is wonderful small town. It is a 20/25 minute taxi to Funchal. Machico has a lovely relaxing and welcoming feel. I was here for the Medieval Festival and WOW if you come to that you will love it. Otherwise Machico is a quieter place with a genuine Portugeuse feel mixing in with the friendly locals.

Machico is so much nicer to stay in than Funchal if you like the quieter more laid back vibe. The shops and restaurants are all good but particular praise must go to all the ladies in Pastelria O Gala who worked tirelessly to keep their customers happy at all times - the Pastel de Natas were simply gorgeous and at EUR1.00 each were superb value. Try O Secreta for a really nice evening meal and don't forget to try the bread in Paderia e Pastelaria Flor de Machico

The apartment was spacious and very comfortable. The location was great ... within walking distance to the beach and also to the village centre. It is also close to the airport.
The name of the apartment was not very clear. In the small print it has Edifico VIP Baie, but I was looking VIP Paradise Apartments.

A lovely town of just the right size, lively but still calm - it has a lot of good restaurants, various stores etc that make your stay comfier than one in a smaller town, without the crowds of a bigger city which can get overwhelming. Funchal is a short drive away, and it is also a great base for all the trips and hikes especially around the eastern part of the island.
And there is a sandy beach well protected from the waves, so almost everyday is a good day for a swim!

Great place for my vacation.
Great place for my vacation. Quiet town providing all you need - supermarkets, one sand and one rocky beach, starting point for hikes and runners trails. Public buses to east part of the island ad Funchal. Bus to the airport - 5min ride for 1,3 eur. Great!
This place was the best we stayed in Madeira. Close to the center, but still quiet. Very comfortable and with nice design. The host was super friendly, he recommended us a very interesting trail run and a couple restaurants to eat. The shared kitchen has everything you need, clean. There is a place you can leave staff so others can pick it up and it won't be wasted. We loved that idea! Room was very comfortable and had enough space.
You can also buy some local handmade products, we got a soap with a really beautiful orange scent 😍
Great location, near Machico, but as others have mentioned you really need a car. I would recommend this anyway as Madeira has so many stunning places. It’s a small space (think hotel room with a small kitchenette), but great for making coffee and breakfast. I actually liked the fact it overlooked the airport, really cool to see the planes taking off and they do not go late into the night. The cafe across the road is great and really handy. Views, like most of Madeira are beautiful.
This is a great place to stay! I highly recommend staying here when going to Machico. The communication with the host is really easy and he is very quick to respond. The location is super nice, in the middle of a cute neighborhood. It's close to the beach (a few minutes walk) supermarkets, bus station and cafes/restaurants. We really felt at home here and would have loved to stay longer if possible. The house had everything we needed (there is even an oven!) and is really clean.
The hotel and the room were really clean, and felt family friendly as suggested by the name. The owner welcomed us warmly (he owns the restaurant next door and you can find him there if not at the reception). We stayed only one night, but it was a great deal for the price ! There's a fridge in the room. The hotel is located next to the Machico beach, and you can park easily. Didn't try the restaurant.
It's only 15 minutes away from the Sao Lourenço walk.
We stayed for a week and we loved everything about this apartment! Spacious, clean, with a fully equipped kitchen. View from the balcony is amazing!
And the location! Right in the heart of Machico Village, very close to a beautiful sandy beach. Easy access to many hikes: some start right here in Machico, to others it was easy to get by Bolt or bus.
The property manager was very helpful. Many thanks for making our vacation so enjoyable!
The apartment was perfect for our stay in Madeira. We did a lot of hiking and needed to come back to comfort and ease. We could wash all our clothes and cook ourselves food. And the apartment is beautiful. With stunning views of the ocean beyond. The area is nice and quiet and situated in a close driving distance to the city. The host is very helpful, understanding and polite. They also reply very very fast to any queries.
- Good location a short walk from Machico centre (bakery, supermarket, restaurants) overlooking the bay
- Large house with plenty of space for a family or group of friends, 2,5 bathrooms
- Terrace on the top floor makes for great vistas for breakfast and dinner
- Services like car rental offered by the owners very convenient at competitive rates
Amazing value for a comfortable, clean, friendly hotel. Very good breakfast buffet with fried eggs, bacon, cold meats, cheeses, yogurt, fresh fruit, juices, rolls and bread. Terrific location a block from the beach, and the town of Machico itself was a very pleasant surprise: scenic, lots of great eateries, pristine clean, and a wonderful beach.
The host was really nice and welcoming. We received a glass of Madeira wine on arrival and taste of local fruits. I had a pleasant discussion with the host when watching football. His English is good. The accommodation was clean, kitchen is well equipped. There is a nice view from the terrace. The owner took us to the airport for 10 EUR.
The apartment is spacious, has a large terrace, convenient for watching the planes take off and land at Madeira airport. The noise from the planes is felt, but there are no departures at night. There is a large supermarket nearby. The location is ideal as a starting point for a tour of the island.
The accommodation was well located, thought no free parking available (few possibilities within 5-7 minute walk). The best Madeira beach is five minutes away. The host explained everything and was very kind to provide coffee capsules. The room was clean and shared kitchen equipped.
Property is located in a great location, close to grocery stores, restaurants and the Machico beach and easy access off the highway. Our stay was perfect and Dina was a great host, answering our questions about various activities around town.
A very nice small family style hotel with a nice restaurant attached. Our room had a nice little balcony overlooking the sea. and a refurbished bathroom. A short walk into town and the beach. No super luxurious but very good.
Spent 10 days there and honestly, it's a perfect place to stay in Madeira. Fully equipped spacious and clean unit 5 minutes away from the sandy beach, the shop, and the restaurants. I couldn't be more satisfied.
Outstanding views across Machico to the sea with the casa set in a Madeiran garden full of exotic plants. Rooms are modern and clean. Value for the rental price is excellent.
